This ink cartage is very easy to install. I have always used this product and I don't get the more expensive one. This one does just fine. The black is very dark and it never smears once I remove the paper. The ink does not come off on my fingers or transfers to other papers. The package is very easy to get into and there never is any ink on the inside of the wrapper. Just peel away the tab and place the ink in the machine. Close it up and if you want to recycle, there is an envelope to put the cartage in and send it off.

I love this product and love my printer that I bought form Staples to help me achieve my bachlors degree in nursing. I have had this printer and been buying toner from staples for about 4 years now. I would not change anything about the way I do business with Staples. They give me rewards when I recycle my toner and everything works out fine. I have never had any problems with the toner cartridge or the printer itself. I have been blessed with the purchase and having a staples near by home that is convenient.

I ordered dell black cartridge ink for an older all in one Dell Printer . No time to go to the store for it . Staples delivered it quickly and with Free shipping . They also kept me informed through e mail to let me knowOf its delivery date.Thanks staples

I am not sure what may happen but after only 40 pages the cartridge is showing low level and should be replaced. In the past I was able to get months of service, 100+ pages,before the low level indicator would show. I t appears that Dell is holding the line on price but reducing the amount of ink in the cartridge.
